minus-squareAussiemandeus@aussie.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·7 months agoI think we’re still a ways off from this happening. Populations are still growing and many countries GDPs are increasing too lifting more people out of poverty each year. Eventually I think games will die off one by one as people age out and it’s not popular for younger audiences. Finally in the end there will be 3 or 4 games owned by 2 companies fighting it out for complete control of consumers
